"For autumn and winter, expect to see a darker red palette becoming popular," forecasts Garcia. If you're looking for a bold, high-fashion switch-up, try a vibrant oxblood shade. (Think: The color of Boston Baked Beans candy).

"Not everyone can pull off such a bold look -- the client must be edgy," says de Souza. "But on the right person, it can look phenomenal." On how to achieve the look, de Souza says that if the starting point is natural hair, it might as simple as getting a single-process color. For a more vibrant result, it might take two. "If the client has colored hair already, and if it's darker than the shade desired, a removal session will have to be done," he explains. "It all depends on the client's starting point."

The downside to such a vibrant, unnatural red is that it requires a bigger time commitment. "It's a high-risk fade color, so upkeep may be more frequent," explains Woods. Clients who go oxblood should be prepared to stop by the salon every three to four weeks for a hair gloss. This will keep the bold fall hair color looking "fresh and intense," says de Souza.

Reed shows the soft side of this dramatic fall hair color.

Combine "subtle" and "ombré," you get sombré. So what do you get when a hair color trend combines brunette and blonde shades? You get "bronde," of course.

Bronde is a highly customizable look that uses natural brown as an all-over color, adding babylights and light ends for a more natural, multi-chromatic effect, says Garcia.

The look is more universally flattering than full-on blonde -- so, for those who want to go lighter, but are too cool (or too nervous) to go platinum, this fall hair color gives that California girl vibe without going all the way. It's also a great fall hair color for transitioning out of a harsh ombré style.

Bronde is low-upkeep -- similar to sombré, depending on how natural a look you're going for. But by far the lowest-maintenance version of bronde is the "lived-in color" technique. Pioneered by celebrity colorist Johnny Ramirez, "lived-in color" is a detailed highlighting method that results in a gorgeous, natural bronde, which lasts six months or more.
